    The Learning Approach
    The programme is based on the action learning phi-
    losophy, which is embodied in four distinct elements:

    • Preparation prior to blocks


    • Lectures, seminars, discussions and case studies
    • Practical assignments and self-learning
    between blocks
    • The problem solving project with supporting
    portfolio of evidence

    Eligibility
    Candidates must have a Bachelor’s degree or an
    Advanced Diploma in a related discipline (Information
    Systems, Business Analysis, Project Management).

    For candidates who do not have a degree or


    Advanced Diploma, the status of bachelor would
    be determined on the basis of Recognition of Prior
    Learning (RPL), taking into consideration having at
    least three years as a Business Analyst, but would
    also consider age, seniority and number of tertiary
    level courses attended. Each candidate will be con-
    sidered on their own merits. As a rule of thumb,
    only 10% of the class may be admitted under RPL.
